tortoisegit default ssh client hangs

We found that by default TortoiseGIT would hang after “Resolving deltas” hits 100% when cloning a repository from stash.silabs.com. The problem did not happen using command line git or if cloning a repo from gitaus001.silabs.com. The issue can be fixed by going to the Network settings and changing the SSH client from TortisePlink.exe to the plink.exe that comes with putty (PuTTY/plink.exe)
